    All debts which

    were contracted and paid between the periods when the value of the bs was fixed annually, could not be affected by such fixing, and unless in debts of long standing which the debtor would not pay without an action at law, demand was not ordinarily made for depreciation, and what rendered it of little effect in all other cases, the counsellors appointed to estimate the depreciation never had firmness enough in any instance to make the full allowance, but when silver and exchange had risen per cent, or more, an addition was made of four or five only. The popular cry was against it, and one year when Nathaniel Hubbard, Esq. MBT Shoes the eldest counsellor for the county of Bristol, a gentleman of amiable character, and who fed the several posts he sustained with applause, endeavored to approach nearer to a just allowance than had been made in former years, he felt the resentment of the House, who left him out of the council the next election. In short, the act neither tory burch sale prevented the depreciation of the bs nor afforded relief in case of it, and was of no other service than to serve as a warning, when an act passed for establishing the currency a few years after, to leave nothing to be done by any person or bodies of men, or even future legislatures, to give the act its designed effect, but in the act itself to tory burch shoes make full provision for itsxecution tory burch outlet in every part." W" By the expedition to Lewisburgh, the preparations for the reduction of Canada, and the several supplies of men for Nova Scotia, the province had," by the year , " issued an immense sum in bs of credit, between two and three mions, according to their denomination in the MBT Shoes UK currency. The greater part of this sum had been issued when between five and six hundred pounds was equal to one hundred pounds sterling, and perhaps the real consideration the Government received from the inhabitants who gave credit to them, wasnear four hundred thousand pounds sterling : but by thus multiplying the bs they had so much depreciated that, at the end of the war, eleven or twelve hundred pounds was not equal to more than a hundred pounds sterling, and the whole debt of the province did not much exceed two hundred thousand pounds sterling. Thus the people had paid two hundred thousand pounds sterling in two or three years, besides a large sum raised by taxes each year, as much as it was supposed the people were able to pay; but to pay by the depreciation of the bs, although infinitely unequal, yet, as they were shifting MBT hands every day, it was almost insensible, a possessor of a large sum for a few days not perceiving the difference in their tory burch flats value between the time when he received them and the time when he parted with them.
